Where am I?
In the mountains above Mussoorie and Landour in the state of Himachal Pradesh. Elevation: 7000 ft above sea level. The only reason this area is accessible to the outside world are the roads left over from the British, Bridge on the River Kwai would shrivel at these imperial relics. British soldiers with malaria and other tropical diseases were brought here to "recover," but were more likely to die peacefully. Now this area attracts the wealthy and retired. It's not like there is anything imperial about rich people on a mountain towering over impoverished towns.
